HhhhhMmmm! Which exhaust to buy?

[Hugo]

Hi folks,

I'm fairly new to this friendly exchange of genius knowledge, of which I'm afraid to say mine is limited

John Rees and Steve b have already shown me how we should slate one another - nice one lads

So, anyway, back to the exhausts - I too prefer 2 pipes, just my opinion but I think it suits the car better. But I do not want a mild steel exhaust as I just want to be able to polish 2 lovely stainless steel ones

From what I read, this rules out NUR Spec and Departure?

Sorry to be so picky but does anyone know the best stainless steel 2 pipe exhaust?

Cheers

[shafster]

greddy power extreme and hks super dragger i guess

[Hurstie1981]

Can i add something here?

Which is best for N/A, i take it you can get an apexi N1, but not nur spec?

Im after ditching my mongoose, dont like the raspy noise!

Mr Shafster, forgot to say mines a N/A - maybe you guessed that?

Do these 2 still apply....?

Cheers

[shafster]

nope sorry bud, the greddy and hks ones arent available for the na. only single exit types.

i dont think any of the top jap makes make twin exit exhausts for the na.... well none that are good or recommended anyway

hurstie: the nur spec is not available for the na. you can get single exit hks ones.

my knowledge on na's is pretty limited

Yep - also depends how loud you want it to be. If you're planning to do any trackdays, the limit is 98dB on the quieter tracks.

I'm really surprised no one has mentioned the Hayward and Scott custom systems - they made it up to a custom spec that John Luck and I gave them a few years back, and there have been a few group buys for them on the email list.

The standard one fitted to the car sounds like this:

The Heyward and Scott system:

I can't find a better pic at the moment, but here's what it looked like as it was fitted to my '2



The Mongoose is cheaper, but there used to be fitment issues with it - it used to be too close to the rear bumper - apparently these should have been fixed though by now.

[Joey]

For the price of the Hayward & Scott it doesn't exactly look like much does it, sound amazing though !

[Leon.]

Cheers for the tip-off Ben

Sounds pretty phat

I'm actually not miles away with my NA K&N filter - it reall is the b0ll0cks - just imagine how good it would sound with both

Do you know what I would expect to pay these days for the Heyward and Scott system?

Cheers,
L

[Leon.]

Forgot to say it looks the dogs balearics too!

It looks perfect

[Leon.]

Joey, just because it isn't 5" and doesn't look out of place doesn't mean it doesn't look much

I prefer subtle improvements in tone with the car - thats my mojo

[LuizeGT]

i love my departure. yeah it goes a little rusty at the welds but a bit of tlc and you can see why they cost so much! i

[Driftlimits Performance]

Hey Luize..

Is that yours? If so, a good way of showing the rear end off + the dep2 is to bend that bit of black grill out the way, up, behind the rear bumper. Take a look at the piccy of my car on the 2nd page of this thread. Makes it look like a new bumper.

[LuizeGT]

yeah thats mine
i never really thought about it until i looked at yours. wow it does look very different

[Joey]

I'm not on about the size, i'm on about the finish, for a £500 exhaust it's not exactly well finished

[Leon.]

I hear you Joey

I still like subtle changes though
